Strut Tower Brace - 1996 SL320

I've just installed a rear sway / stabilizer bar on my 96 SL320, the handling is improved significantly.

I am interested in obtaining a front Strut Tower Brace for this car, (I've installed them on other cars with pleasing results) but cannot seem to find one.

I can obtain one for the 2003 SL350 but I'm sure it's a different car.

Anyone have any experience with the Strut Tower Brace for this car or a source ?
If I can come up with the bracked that bolts to the strut mount I can make up the rest...

Secondly; Has anyone adjusted their Steering gear box, mine seems to have a space of free play dead center and I don't see any exterior adjustment on the gear box...
Anyone install rack and pinion on this car ? That's my next thought...

Thanks for responding.
